RHBA-2013:0482 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated xfsdump packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The xfsdump packages provide several utilities for managing XFS file systems,
including xfsrestore and xfsdump.

This update fixes the following bug:

• With Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4, XFS has been enhanced to allow the use of

the 32-bit project quota ID feature. However, the top 16 bits of a 32-bit
project quota ID were not properly saved and restored using the xfsdump and
xfsrestore utilities. This caused the data to be saved and restored with an
incorrect 16-bit project quota ID. With this update, the underlying source code
has been fixed so that all 32 bits of the project quota ID are properly saved
and restored by xsfdump and xfsrestore. (BZ#860454)

All users of xfsdump are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
this bug.
